Uittocht der Salzburger emigranten 1732

This silver medal, created by Martin Holtzhey in 1732, commemorates the emigration of Salzburg Protestants, known as the "Uittocht der Salzburger emigranten". The obverse depicts a procession of the Salzburgers, highlighting their journey and faith. The reverse features an inscription in Dutch, emphasizing the importance of religious freedom and the hope for a better future. The small, detailed design of this medal makes it a powerful symbol of the enduring impact of religious persecution and the resilience of the human spirit.
